I wanted to try out wireless earbuds and decided as a lover of Apple to try the AirPods Pro. I was so disappointed when they came in the mail and ended up being fakes! I wanted to share my experience with you so you can learn how to spot a fake and not deal with the frustration of getting a fake product. I'm very happy with the REAL AirPods Pro. I've been able to listen to many more audiobooks and podcasts than I would have with wired earbuds. I hope my review and comparison of the fake vs real AirPods Pro helps you in your shopping experience.

Great video! How did you know that you got a fake one in the first place, sir? I mean if you compare it with the real ones, than yeah it's much easier. But what if you don't have the real one..
@pauldittus 2 роки тому
Thanks Professor Noslen! It was content like my video that helped me realize that it was a possibility and that it was a fake. I was surprised at how close the fake were to the real ones. One of the first things I noticed was that I had to manually connect and disconnect the Bluetooth device from one Apple device to another. If you’re buying second hand I would recognize that getting a fake can be common so I recommend using some buyer protection so you have time to evaluate the product. Hope this helps friend 🙌

i just bought airpods pro 2 from walmart physical stores what are chances they are fakes got those for $199 ! or what are the chances they are refurbishes ( they sold them under new product category tho) !
@pauldittus 7 місяців тому
If you bought them new from Walmart, I would trust that you have a genuine product unless you have clear signs it’s not. Has anything acted weird so far? Did you buy it in Walmart or on their website? I do believe Walmart has 3rd party sellers which might be a cause for concern, but if it was in store, personally I would think it would be legit.

Story: I got a thing in the mail a few years ago saying that if you go to your local car dealership, you have a chance to win a ton of different things (TVs, AirPods, etc.) through a scratch off. No purchase necessary. It was at a point in time where AirPods were something I really wanted, so I decided why not, I'll do it. I ended up having to drive 40 minutes to get there, but I "won" the AirPods. Apparently, they had just "run out" of AirPods, and asked me to come back the next day. It was for free AirPods, so I decided to do it. 40 minute drive there and back. I went back the next day, got my free AirPods, and left. After I got home, I realized they were fake. I looked up the "brand" online, and they go for $7 at walmart. The AirPods don't even have the capability to connect to your bluetooth device at the same time. You have to choose one ear or the other.

Anyways it’s weird how the Chinese companies make the high copy very fast it’s like mafia ; I lost some money which is not considerable for me( if it wasn’t why wouldn’t you buy from Apple store) but I learned what’s going on ; as my story I looked at the guy eyes and asked him about the AirPod authenticity and he said I swear to my balls that this AirPod is origin and I bought it

Its so hard to spot because the ear pieces was in find my but the case was not. The noise canceling was also working and I could look them up in the Iphone setting and see warranty date and serial number.

Hey quick update here, some clones have updated the packaging around the AirPods case to have the pull tab with the line on it and to look way less cheaper, they have also replicated all the functions and whatnot. But the box quality is still a give away of how cheap the packaging is and still gives away they are fakes. But for the rest, stickers, fonts, etc, they are getting scarily close to the real ones.

Apple is definitely more expensive than other options out there. I think it's the ecosystem that makes the difference not necessarily the quality of the device. Their computers are definitely a lot more expensive than the PC equivalent. It's when you have multiple devices in the same ecosystem that the true power is shown. That said, I've definitely had a hard time justifying the high prices of the Apple. Especially their phones. I only recently adapted iPhone. I'm a big fan of Google's Pixel for price, features, and performance. Do you have a preferred ecosystem or earbuds? Thanks for sharing your thoughts friend.

Can't you enter the serial # on Apple website to check if its real?
@pauldittus 2 роки тому
Unfortunately, they copy real serial #s onto fake AirPods. That’s what happened to mine as well.

The fake I tested wasn’t as good as the real AirPods Pro, but perhaps there are variations of the fake which are better 🏆

The way to prevent being deceived is to buy fake AirPods Pro, because I know it is a fake but its function and quality are the same as the real one, so I chose him

I personally liked the real ones better, but you are right. If you go in being open to getting fakes there are many options available for less.

What about spatial audio? Is the fake can replicate?

Hi friend! I no longer have the fake ones, but I believe it is something that is done via software processing so it would probably still work on the fake, but I would imagine wouldn’t sound as good. Welcome to the channel fam 🙌

@@reslaega6134 thanks friend. Appreciate the feedback. I definitely was surprised at how many fake products are out there. If you look on most used sites you will notice fake products. That’s why I recommend buying with buyer protection so if you do end up with a fake you should be able to get your money back like I did.

Fake real ones kinda bs argument companys(manufacturers)offer same shit even better u can grab the airoha chip set which has the same features as the h1 an w1 chips they got really good at replicating them just gotta know which seller you're buying from
@pauldittus 2 роки тому
I was definitely impressed by how close the fake ones get. Personally I was able to tell a difference with the one I tested, but for some that might be exactly what they’re looking for at a cheaper price. Personally, I have a problem with people deceiving others into believing a product is real or simply replicating another company’s work. That said, you are correct that they’re surprisingly close.

Next time you do this again (comparing products) make sure to focus the camera to both products not to your face…. i mean like do the birds eye view/ top view of the products for us to see the products and compare them,, Most of the time all I can see is your face, Maybe thats why your view is not getting higher.
